Tour to Tucker, GA

Friday morning, we off on another Model A adventure.  This medium length tour should let us know if we truly have the "bugs" worked out of Miz B.  It will be about a 500 mile round trip.   Our tour to Chattanooga is coming up in mid September and should be a good tour to really check out the car for its ability to take on a longer tour!

This time, we are headed west to Georgia.  Our first stop will be to the small town of Madison, Georgia.  There, we will visit the Micro Museum, owned by Bruce Weiner.  The Museum Collection is primarily focused on Microcars in the late 1940's- pre-1964 range with Engine sizes of 700cc or less (many are 250cc and 50cc) and 2 doors or less.  We will be traveling with two other couples in their A's, as well - Twila & John Cockerill and Margaret & Gary Smith.  Late in the day, we will arrive in Tucker, Georgia - a small suburb of the greater Atlanta metropolitan area.  On Saturday, we will enjoy perusing the Swap Meet hosted by the Georgia Chapter at Cofer's Stable of Thoroughbreds.  We anticipate a tour of the museum, as well.  Our tour will conclude with the drive back to Lexington, South Carolina on Sunday.  

More details to come as we travel the back roads of South Carolina and Georgia, this weekend!
